swetts nashville is a amazing soul food place.

by Tabarnes

Im from Oklahoma City (Go Sooners). I was in Nashville in October 2008. I asked if there were a Soul Food Place at the hotel i was staying at they referred me to Swetts. I was truly amazed, of the foods, dessert. It taste just like grannie used to make. I will tell all my friends and family members to go there it was wonderful. I will be there on the 14th of december, and will eat there. The only thing i wish they had it as a buffet for example. buffet you can charge $8.00-$8.50 all you can eat. it is worth it.

Where's the beef?

by jnjmcl

I love a good meat and three, and I've always heard about Swett's and how good it is. I have since been a couple of times to give it a fair shot but I have not been totally pleased. There was nothing wrong with the food, it tasted fine. The issues I have with Swett's are the portions and the price.

The price is a little higher than average for a meat and three. Also, for that price you would expect some decent portions but everytime I have gone there I walk away hungry. Until they make some changes in those areas then I can't consider this place anything else besides average.

• Pros: Food was good
• Cons: Price, Portions

Good food, but a little costly

by southerngrl1

I grew in the neighborhood where Swett's is located. I remember the ORIGINAL Swett's diner when the matriarch of the family (Mrs. Swett) was living. The food was a lot better then and the prices were affordable. Today things have changed but the Beef Tips are still my favorite. It is however a little overpriced. It's a great place for college students and visitors but there are a few other places in town that have great food and better prices.

• Pros: Pleasant environment, large group meeting room available
• Cons: Prices too high
